Free Speech Loses To The Left In Mexico

Mark in Mexico has a good take on the arrogant, self-serving supporters of Andres Manuel Lopez Obrador that prevented President Fox from delivering his final State of the Nation address.

As Mark nicely puts it, "As is typical with those from the left, free speech is demanded for setting forth their ideas but is to be squelched in any manner possible, legal or illegal, when that free speech might be exercised by their opponents."

I am no fan of Fox, but the man is entitled to give his speech and those that would deny him that right are the true enemies of democracy. Beware the so called liberties of the left.
